209B-Viking Legends: Time and Tide

Our winter Norse saga continues, with our protagonists celebrating Christmas in Norway...and also learning what Christmas is when the king basically puts a sword to their necks and tells them to convert or die.

We’ll also follow Gudrun on marriages 1 and 2, the first ending with a problematic wardrobe malfunction and the second with a meddling of (possible) sorcerers.

The creature is the Tomten, a forlorn little goblin who will either make sure you’re safe in bed...or bite you.
